Get the Look: Maine's Modern Nautical

Noticing a room in your home in need of a bit of a refresh? Why not take a page from the design of Samoset Resort’s newly renovated guest rooms.


As if that sprawling view of Penobscot Bay wasn’t enough of a show-stopping feature, Samoset Resort framed that view just right in the renovation of its 178 guest rooms and suites. New nautical touches include navy and white striped upholstery, shiplap walls, decorative paddles, and local Maine photography. Here’s how you can take that look home – Penobscot Bay (unfortunately) not included.
